Roost it far

It’s also when players are “in sync” with each other and the game plan. Things start to get on a roll and in that finals series we were “in the groove”

I don’t understand your response. Plus I was talking about guys recruited from other clubs at picks in the late 20’s re number of games. Anyway, I just don’t see this as a massive mistake by the club. We rolled the dice and lost and that happens.

Ferocious is the word. We were so hard to play against. God I loved watching us play

Do we need another inside mid right now? Can George become best 22 in the next 2-3 years? Who else is available? Where do we see our list holes and overall profile? Will Culley hold a best 22 spot for 5-10 years? Is Kentfield worth persisting with? The club will answer these questions and my hunch is George will get the spot.

Ridiculous, if you buy an old car with some potential and you’re a great mechanic then of course you take the punt. Our fitness people had him on the verge of fulfilling his talent. His injury is a cruel blow for a kid who’s apparently worked his backside off to give himself the best chance at success. Yes he’s likely a bust in the cruel light of day but pick 28 rarely gets you a 200 game player. The club will help him recover and he’ll likely be delisted and we’ll move on. He won’t be the last pick in the late 20’s to play very few games. Ranting about wasteful picks is hyperbole.

I’m not saying you’re wrong as I don’t know but the magic of intuitive indigenous players has me a George fan.

Unless the picks/players match there’s no way I’m letting him go. He wants to go to Darwin, has family in WA and SA. He stays if I’m the head of football….which just quietly I should be. I think Richo is an amateur.

That my friend is what’s “ Money for jam” They’ll be paying that out by round 10

Let’s hope so. I just don’t like best 22 injuries

Woeful scheduling. Makes us look like amateurs… sadly it’s the same old story

Kate Roffey is on her way……oh wait a minute!

We need to bank early wins if we’re going to threaten. McAdam was the obvious Koz replacement and McVee is a big loss. Just imagine an injury to a Lever or Petty and it’s a tight rope from there.

It’s X factor of George for me. I’d be popping Kentfield on the LTI and taking both. Kentfield is such a long shot anyway

We’re one more best 22 injury away from being in strife.

I’m holding stock, I ain’t selling till it’s at its peak and that’s not next year.

I’m not convinced we need another big bodied mid. If George is committed to a 10 year career he’d be my pick.

The missing piece was a good run with injuries, same as when Balme coached us

If he’s done his Achilles his season is over. There’s our LTI. I thought George was next in line but some are saying Culley. Personally I can’t see how a WCE reject jumps ahead but time will tell.

Roy George here we come. Seriously I hope McAdam hasn’t done anything beyond a minor sprain and will be back on track in a week or two. Fingers crossed.

It’s never too soon

He signed the contract last year? I’m not sure why we’d let him go if he’s contracted unless there was extenuating circumstances and Freo could offer serious picks in return. Thats something I don’t think they can do. For mine he honours his contract as Petracca and Oliver will do.

That’s a Picket Fence nightmare right there.

Sure but he doesn’t have a choice and we’ve got 3 years to convince him to stay
